Definition
Dual Pass option: This refers to the fact that the fluorescing dye
can be applied to a separate panel of HDP Film. (Note: First, the
YMC ink is applied to a panel of HDP film; then, the F and
possibly K are applied to a separate panel. If this is not done, the
fluorescent ink tends to mix with the YMC colors and lose its
fluorescent qualities; it also tends to become visible.)
It is recommended that the user use the default "Dual Pass"
option if the fluorescent image is used in places where other dye
is used or if the "Invert F panel" option is selected.
Printing on the front and the back of the card.
The speed at which the card moves across the Transfer and
Lamination Roller, measured in seconds/inch (sec/in). This can be
adjusted in the Driver to ensure adhesion and card flatness.
The diffusion of dye out of the card surface and into another
receptive surface, such as a vinyl pouch card holder, resulting in a
faded image.
Also called dye diffusion/thermal transfer, it is the process of
heating a dye suspended in a cellulous substrate until the dye can
flow, diffusing into the dye receptive surface of the card or InTM
film. This produces the image in the surface of the card.
An abbreviation for electronic card. A generic term used to
reference any card with built-in electronic devices such as Smart
Cards or prox cards.
The device in the Printer that accepts Smart Cards with an ISO
Smart Card contact Station. This allows the User to write to the
Smart Card chip with a standard RS-232 interface in the back of
the Printer or with the optional built-in Encoder.
